Brand guidelines
Our logo, colors, and type, with the files you'll need to use them.
Logo system
The Stepped Bridge is our mark. Use the two-tone logo on light backgrounds and the white version on dark backgrounds.
Horizontal logo
The primary logo for websites, documents, and partner materials.
Logo on a color field
The full white logo on our deep teal. Keep the color field and its margin intact on dark or mixed surfaces.
Stacked logo
For narrow spaces and centered placements.
Stacked logo on a color field
The stacked white logo on deep teal, with built-in clear space for compact placements. Keep the color field intact.
Bridge mark
For compact placements where the GrantAPT name is already present.
Roundel
For social avatars and square profile images. The circle is part of the artwork.
Small icon
The simplified mark for favicons and small application placements.
One-color and clear-space files
Use one color for constrained production. Choose a clear-space file when a template makes placement difficult.

SVGs scale without losing detail. The wordmark SVGs use Figtree Bold; use the PNG if your software doesn't support the font. PNGs have transparent backgrounds, except for the roundel and the logo on a color field. Scale them down, never up.
Give the logo room
Keep the mark and name together in the supplied proportions. Leave clear space around the artwork so it stays distinct from nearby text and images.

Keep it clear
- Keep the supplied colors, backgrounds, and clear space.
- Choose white artwork for a dark, uncluttered surface.
- Check that the name is readable at the final size. Use the small icon when it isn't.
Keep it consistent
- Don't stretch, crop, rotate, or rearrange the artwork.
- Don't retype the wordmark or substitute its typeface.
- Don't add shadows, outlines, gradients, or glow.
Color palette
Deep teal carries the identity. Zinc neutrals and white give it space. Use the accent sparingly and keep text readable.

Figtree gives headings their shape. Manrope keeps longer passages clear and easy to read.

Use sentence case, left-aligned body copy, and a clear heading hierarchy. Avoid thin weights, tightly tracked headings, and decorative prelabels. The supplied logo wordmark uses Figtree Bold 700; don't recreate it as live text.
